aio-posix: make AioHandler dispatch O(1) with epoll
File descriptor monitoring is O(1) with epoll(7), but aio_dispatch_handlers() still scans all AioHandlers instead of dispatching just those that are ready. This makes aio_poll() O(n) with respect to the total number of registered handlers. Add a local ready_list to aio_poll() so that each nested aio_poll() builds a list of handlers ready to be dispatched. Since file descriptor polling is level-triggered, nested aio_poll() calls also see fds that were ready in the parent but not yet dispatched. This guarantees that nested aio_poll() invocations will dispatch all fds, even those that became ready before the nested invocation. Since only handlers ready to be dispatched are placed onto the ready_list, the new aio_dispatch_ready_handlers() function provides O(1) dispatch. Note that AioContext polling is still O(n) and currently cannot be fully disabled. This still needs to be fixed before aio_poll() is fully O(1).
